In a similar vein, I am going to be writing a lot of formulae of the type V~=~int from infinity to r F_A dr~=~int from infinity to r {e^2 over r^2}~=~e^2 int from infinity to r {dr over r^2}. Is there a way that I can increase the size of the integral symbol and only the integral symbol, without increasing the size of everything else?

Re: The formula (equation) function
Not as far as I know.
There is an open issue for it: Issue 45511: Integral sign too small and not scalable
You can register there and add your vote (up to two) or comment.
With this sort of request, I feel obligated to say: If you want really professional formula output, you have to use something other than OOo. It's just not up to that level.

Re: The formula (equation) function
Sorry, no. Math is quite limited when you need to write complex (and not so complex) formulae.
You need to carefully consider your "user case": Writer+Math is useful on many situations... but for some tasks you'll need a different tool. If you need to type a lot of math and you also need gorgeous equations, you need to use LaTeX: even expensive math packages like scientific word use LaTeX as back-end...
You can try LyX as really nice front-end for LaTeX, I wrote my PhD thesis on it

There are two types of people: those who believe that there are two types of people and those who do not.

Re: [Issue] The formula (equation) function
There are some larger integral signs in the STIX fonts:

Other maths fonts may have integral signs of varying size.
